Window washer dies after 18-story fall - Cleaning Maintenance & Management Magazine
We regret to learn about an accident in our industry. There are risks working from heights, whether it be on a ladder, a chair or a platform.
Always practice safety at the workplace. Use the best safe means test, when deciding how to clean windows. The I-14 Window Cleaning Safety Standard is a good source.

Irv Tucker would be proud today ... fourth generation participating in Tucker Manufacturing Co., Inc.
As you may remember, Tucker Manufacturing Co. Inc. was founded in 1945 by Irv Tucker. Irv's son, I.L. (Tommy) Tucker was at his side back in 1945. Today, my father, Tommy, is the senior member of our organization, along with his wife, LaVerne, my mother, who has been involved in the business dating back to the 1950s.
My grandfather, I.L. "Irv" Tucker, would likely be very proud today with a fourth generation of our family involved in our business. Our daughter, Cheryl Tucker, has been assisting this summer her dad and mom, Robin and Carole Tucker, who are third generation. Cheryl will be heading back to university this fall, where she is studying medical biology, with an interest in pharmacy.
We want to wish Cheryl the very best in her fall semester. We also want reflect back and say 'thank you' to Irv Tucker, the founder of Tucker Manufacturing Co., Inc. He and his wife, Iva Mae, my grandmother, began the tradition over 64 years ago.
By the way, four generations have now been involved in the family business and have been involved in Rotary International. The motto of Rotary is 'Service Above Self.' The international service club has been a major part of our history with our company as well. It was an advertisement in The Rotarian back in the early 1960s that helped in developing relationships with some our distributors and customers. We celebrate our 45Th anniversary with our Japanese distributor through Rotary International and The Rotarian.
Cheryl was a member of Interact, while she attended Washington High School, here in Cedar Rapids. Irv, Tommy and myself have all been members of the Rotary Club of Cedar Rapids. I can be found at most Rotary Club of Cedar Rapids meetings every Monday at Noon.
Respectfully,
tucker pole

Need help: DI Tanks, Resin and Regeneration for the TDI835?
We had a customer recently e-mail us about questions on the Tucker® TDI835. We thought our other customers might enjoy some of the information we shared with our customer on this product and options ...
We shared with him the Operating Specifications for our Tucker® TDI835 (See attached PDF of Specs for TDI835). They have not changed and the tank holds just under 1 cubic foot of resin. The Material (Resin): .98 cubic foot of mixed bed de-ionizing resin. A 8" x 38" Tank would hold 1 cubic foot, but is a larger tank. We selected the 8" x 35" because it is a very popular size in the field. We can supply smaller and larger tanks, per special order.
We generally sell both one cubic foot of virgin resin or one cubic foot of regenerated resin to customers. We would recommend you save your resin when dumped, so you can look into getting it regenerated at a later time. Regeneration is likely available in your area, but we can assist with regeneration of the TDI835 tank or providing you regeneration of the resin only, without sending the entire tank back. Storing it in a drum or box lined with plastic is what most customers do. Drums can be shipped back for regeneration in bulk, if required. Single batch resin can be shipped and returned in plastic lined boxes.
In refilling the 8" x 35" tank, you will use roughly .98 cubic foot of the mixed bed de-ionizing resin. We would be happy to discuss providing you re-fill resin for your specific needs. When we ship replacement resin, one cubic foot is shipped to refill the tanks. Remember, the capacity of the TDI835 is .98 cubic foot, so there will be some resin not used.
We can sell new tanks (various sizes) with or without resen. We can provide you with a supply of one cubic foot units of new or regenerated resin, depending on your customers needs. Our resin is window cleaning base resin and is the standard resin that we have been supplying to various customers over the years.
Please get back with customer service at Tucker, so we can provide you with a pro-forma on the material. We hope this information will help clear up some questions you have on the TDI835.
